If it is within reach i apply with a sprayer

If not eithe on my brush or with a harris pole with moerman blue applicator as it holds loads of solution..then i dip in bucket of water and ubik and apply with that..leave 5 minutes then scrub

Just trying to differentiate between the two. Is it one or the other, or used for different purposes?? Cheers lads.

Both of these are what we use @Eric Gilliand

Natural and no harmful chemicals..ubik just has an edge over virosol

 

[Dave B]

This is why i use them

This is a vid of mr munro with virosol and 1 with ubik..how easily it all melts off

Thanks for that. This appears to me (correct me if I'm wrong) a neutral cleaner for hard surfaces, possibly even food area floor cleans? The only reason I use the IPA is to aid slip with rubber on glass. Has any one tried it in their trad mix? I'd imagine that it may give slip but would leave a coating and/or smears on the glass. ?? Yes? No?

...Davey just caught the clips. Great stuff...good results.

I wasn't sure what ipa was apart from beer (india pale ale) thanks for that Eric

I have heard people say use ipa in winter to stop freezing on the glass

Yes, although it never gets cold enough for that over here and even if it did I would stay in bed so I wouldn't need it for that...IPA/Ecover was an early experiment of Jim Thomson before he developed his 'Window Ceaner's Shine' Originally he developed it to give added shine to the glass. A cleaner in Oz called Maurice Richardson (Vision down under) put me onto it and I was pleasantly surprised to experience the added slip with Razer Red...by the by anyone on here know Jim. I've heard he had some health challenges?
